to grass-killing gas that seeps out of the soil. But the patches may be the natural result of the subsurface competition for resources among plants new research suggests.
Grasslands in the Namib desert start off homogenous but sparse rainfall and nutrient-poor soil spark intense competition between the grasses according to the new theory.
Strong grasses sap all of the water and nutrients from the soil causing their weaker neighbors to die and a barren gap to form in the landscape.
and the grass-free zone becomes a reservoir for nutrients and water. With the additional resources larger grass species are then able to take root at the periphery of the gap
and a stable fairy circle develops. See Photos of Mysterious Fairy circles of the Namib desert It's a really good theory
because it accounts for all the characteristics of fairy circles including the presence of tall grass species Florida State university biologist Walter Tschinkel who was involved not in the study told Livescience.
He reasoned that the termites feed on the grasses'roots killing the plants which usually use up the soil's water
because the taller grasses won't need a large reservoir of resourcesto get started and survive if water and nutrients are already available in the environment.
On the other hand the grasses require a large reservoir to sustain themselves if the soil is poor in water and nutrients.
Additionally the regular spacing between fairy circles may be the result of inter-circle competition with grasses from each circle battling with other circle grasses for resources Cramer said.
and their role is to serve as a maintenance for the circles by killing off the grasses that spring up in the center of the circles.
It is unclear how peripheral grass resource-competition could induce such abrupt and synchronized plant mortality over an entire patch Naudã who has studied previously fairy circles told Livescience in an email.
Some of the rocks contained grains of iron called magnetite and showed magnetic properties by deflecting a compass needle.

#Rare Meteorite Grains May be from Supernova That Sparked Solar system Two surprising grains of sand in a pair of meteorites that landed On earth suggest they were formed in a single supernova that occurred billions of years ago new research suggests.
These grains may even come from the same star explosion that sparked the formation of the solar system scientists say.
The chemical signature of these grains is identical and extremely rare so rare in fact that scientists suspect both grains came from a single supernova.
This type of supernova occurs when a massive star runs out of fuel for nuclear fusion and collapses in on itself in a giant explosion.
These are the first such grains found in primitive meteorites and are distinct because of the type of oxygen contained in the silica.
Previous research has uncovered a handful of space rocks containing silica grains enriched in oxygen-17
But a slightly heavier version of oxygen called oxygen-18 was found in these two new grains.
Supernova Photos Great Images of Star Explosions The silica grains are so small they are invisible to the naked eye.
Haenecour investigated just how the silica grains might have come to be and found that their formation would have required a complex process of mixing material from various different layers of the star as it exploded.
Because the precise mixing required to create oxygen-18 is so specific the researchers suspect that both silica grains originated in the same supernova.

Charcoal and grains of sand from a timber structure at the Maya Devi Temple in Lumbini Nepal date to the sixth century B c. according to the a study published in the December issue of the journal Antiquity.

which eat stored grains rather than crops results showed. Venoms from other insect-eating animals such as centipedes and scorpions may also contain peptides that could be used as bioinsecticides.
Craine thinks this size discrepancy results from differences in grass quality. Grasses in warm dry regions tend to contain less protein than those in cooler wetter regions.
Protein deficiency slows bison growth early in life resulting in smaller adults. Other grazers like cattle will likely face similar changes in a warming climate Craine said.
Though more work is needed to predict the extent of warming on the prairie Craine suggests that the cattle industry could face losses of more than $1 billion within the next 75 years as a result of degrading grass quality.

Tiny sediment grains (too small for the eye to see) can be sorted by your sensitive tongue into silt clay or mud.
along with observations of dust grains change our understanding of planet formation astronomers said. Observations of the system revealed a dust trap of millimeter-size grains on one side of the star with smaller micrometer-size particles spread evenly throughout the disc.
The particles astronomers said could eventually clump into a comet factory producing kilometer-size rocks such as those found in the Kuiper Belt outside Neptune's orbit.
what they were observing could help explain how dust grains grow over time to become the beginnings of planets called protoplanets.
The grains quickly disappear and spiral into the star. Enter the dust-trap theory: If there were a way to form an environment for the dust to grow perhaps it could solve the radial-drift problem.
Pinned between these two high-pressure areas the dust grains hover stick together and eventually grow. The grains are too far away from this star to form planets their density is low as they're in a region that should be made up mostly of ice according to planetary-formation theories.
They could however become icy 1-kilometer-wide objects in time similar to what is seen in the Kuiper Belt in Earth s solar system.

Coe said farming became more effective during this period likely because of the breeding of more productive form of maize and perhaps more importantly the introduction of the oenixtamal process.
